British comedy legends James & Jamesy make their highly anticipated return to Huntsville this November with the wildly popular holiday classic, O Christmas Tea: A British Comedy. Coming to the Algonquin Theatre on November 7 at 7:30 p.m!
For over a decade, the three-time London Impresario Award-winning duo James & Jamesy (Aaron Malkin and Alastair Knowles) have been flooding theatres with joy and laughter with their multi-award-winning festive comedy.
Reminiscent of classic British pantos, O Christmas Tea is rich with wordplay, comic physicality, and cleverly crafted interactive elements. Yet, the real magic is found in the duo’s boundless imagination and endearing chemistry.
“The Christmas season is the time of year when we are encouraged to dream big, embrace imagination, and celebrate child-like excitement for magic and merriment,” says Jamesy (Alastair Knowles), who plays Jamesy. “With O Christmas Tea, we bring together multiple generations in the theatre, laughing and enjoying each other’s company — and ours.”
Fans and critics alike rave about the duo’s ability to elicit a sense of play in a room full of adults and children. “The unique production sends audience members home invigorated, rejuvenated, and joyful that the child in you is now awake,” says reviewer Christopher Hoile (Stage Door Toronto) in his five-star review of the show.
Juxtaposing British propriety with an unabashed love for the unexpected, O Christmas Tea casts away the conventions of theatre and joyously breaks the fourth wall. In fact, just about the only thing these two don’t break is their Royal Doulton tea set in this wonderful evening of play and whimsy.
If you can’t make it to the Algonquin Theatre on November 7th, O Christmas Tea also plays in these nearby venues and beyond:
November 9: Fraser Auditorium, Sudbury
November 10: Stockey Centre, Parry Sound
